23rd World Hydrogen Energy Conference: Bridging Continents by H2, WHEC 2022, İstanbul, Turkey, 26 - 30 June 2022, pp.1052-1055, (Full Text)
The primary goal of this proposed work is to examine the solar energy-combined multigeneration model in order to produce heating, power, hydrogen, and clean water in a comprehensive way from the thermodynamic aspect. This plant consists of mainly five sub-unit that is heliostat field, supercritical Brayton cycle, transcritical Rankine cycle, multi-effect desalination unit, and PEM electrolyzer. Looking at analysis results, the amount of the hydrogen rate of this combined plant is 0.001179 kgs-1. Also, the capacity of the electrical power is 1194 kW. To finish, the whole energetic and exergetic performance of the modeled plant is 44.63% and 13.74%, respectively.
